PNG is a file format that supports transparency... You could take parts of your word art and combine them into a single "PNG" file instead of many seperate ones...

Mmmm.. That's interesting - I'm like a new school student here - I didn't realize just how much I don't know!!! My next question is how do I do that???
I have never before used "Paint" or anything like that... I tried today to open an embellishment of a safety pin so I could "rub out" a section so it looked like it went through the paper but I just stuffed up the original picture .
when I opened it in "Paint" It had a black background - I could rub out a section OK but could not get the transparent background back -and I mistakenly "saved" it like that - now I can't use it at all

Hang In There Moonbeam

I haven't even tried to attach emblishments or templets yet. I am attempting to learn from what is happening to you. I have always considered myself fairly knowledgeable with computers but it is apparent that I have a lot more to learn. Just hang in there, I know you will figure it out. BTW, I too am anxious to upload some of your templetes because you've got some awsome tumbnails.

1. How large is the template (please be exact as possible -- you can find this out by right-clicking on the template file, and choosing 'Properties' -- the number i'm after is the one listed next to 'Size', in 'Bytes').

2. What happens when you try to upload the template? (ie. you get a page-can't-be-displayed error *immediately*, you get the same error after a while, the forum tells you the template is too big, etc.).

All I have is "paint"??? I just right click on the image and from the menu chose "open with" and select "Paint'????I don't know what else to use!( I have Microsoft Works if that is relevant?)

...and Desmond I haven't had time to try to upload again but as soon as I do I will respond to your question - thanks RG
